Al-Hilal Offers €300M for Rodrygo to Replace Neymar
In a bold move to fill the void left by Neymar Jr., Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal has reportedly offered Real Madrid a staggering €300 million for Brazilian forward Rodrygo.
The 22-year-old, who has been instrumental in Real Madrid’s recent successes, including their 2022 and 2024 La Liga–Champions League doubles, is seen as a prime candidate to rejuvenate Al-Hilal’s attacking prowess.
Neymar’s tenure with Al-Hilal was marred by injuries, limiting him to just seven appearances, during which he contributed one goal and three assists.
Following a severe cruciate ligament tear that sidelined him for the entire 2023-24 season, the club and Neymar mutually agreed to terminate his contract. The Brazilian star has since returned to his former club, Santos, on a six-month deal.
Al-Hilal is reportedly prepared to offer Rodrygo a lucrative salary to entice him to the Saudi Pro League. However, Rodrygo, who recently extended his contract with Real Madrid until 2028, has expressed his desire to remain with the Spanish giants and continue his development in European football.
Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen has praised his new teammate, Rafael Leão, describing the Portuguese forward as a “good superstar” following the club’s 3-2 victory over Göztepe.
Galatasaray secured the win at the RAMS Park on Saturday, August 29, 2026, with Osimhen getting on the scoresheet as the Turkish champions claimed all three points.
Following the match, Galatasaray unveiled Leão to the home fans after completing his move from Italian side AC Milan. Reacting to the arrival of his new teammate, Osimhen said “Very good [signing]. Rafael Leão is a good superstar, I said it.”
Leão officially joined Galatasaray from AC Milan on Sunday, August 30, 2026, in one of the major moves of the summer transfer window.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
